First, we need alternative options. Electric motors or rechargeable batteries still need a lot of development time in order to appeal in the mass. Fracking is even more harmful to the environment.
Ceasing the expansion of fossil fuel production is necessary to incentivize the development and adoption of alternatives. Electric motors don't really need more development - certainly nothing requiring breakthrough new technology. Batteries are what needs more prioritization, there are plenty of options available. They don't all have to be chemical batteries. Energy can be stored with thermal or kinetic systems as well.
